Victor Sanchez del Amo is out as Real Betis manager following a 4-0 loss to Leganes on Monday night.

Real Betis have sacked coach Victor Sanchez del Amo and replaced him with former captain Alexis Trujillo for the final two games of the season.

Betis decided to make a managerial change in the wake of Monday's 4-0 defeat at struggling Leganes -- the club's third-successive loss and sixth in eight matches. That run has left Betis 15th in La Liga, although they are safe from relegation as they lie 10 points clear of the bottom three.
